I have posted before that I spoke at length with Bart at the club dinner. He is happy to see out this years contract with Millwall as their back up. He categorically stated that he does not want to play L1 football. I don’t think the club could get him a loan deal with a L1 club. Hence, my guess is that it will be Long who goes on loan. GR will just tell him straight that he can not guarantee regular first team football if he stays with us. He has recently signed a new contract.
Who knows? The big question is whether he goes straight into the team at Boro. Fair chance he will as he will be out to impress his new teammates and try extra hard to keep a clean sheet.
